Starting the game
Once you have placed your bet(s), click 'Deal' and you will receive five cards face up for each betting position. The Dealer will also receive 5 cards - the first face up and the remaining 4 face down.
Raise or Fold
Once all cards have been dealt you must decide whether to raise or fold. If you fold, the hand is over and your ante is lost.
If you choose to raise, twice your ante amount is placed in the Bet marker, the Dealer's cards are turned and the hands compared. If the dealer does not qualify with at least an Ace and King, then all the remaining ante bets pay even money and all raise bets are a push. If the dealer does qualify, then each individual player's hand is compared to the dealers, in an anticlockwise direction as viewed by the dealer, and the best poker hand wins in each case:
a. If the dealer has the better hand, the player loses both ante and raise.
b. If both hands are equal in value, both ante and raise are a push.
c. If the player has the better hand, the ante pays even money and the raise pays according to the active pay table.

For winning hands the ante is returned and the call bet is paid out as follows:
